Default Which Blower Head?

I tried searching but had no luck. I have a rather unique question. I want to know which turbo kits use which heads. What I mean by this (for those who may not know this teminology) is the actual "turbo", "centrifugal charger", or whatever else one might call it.

ZPI uses a 16g Mitsubishi style turbo. Dezod uses a T3/T4 turbo. Greddy uses an 18g Mitsubishi style turbo. Turbonetics uses a T3/T4 turbo. And for the other kits I do not know.

Thank you, that's a good start but I'm actually looking for the industrial model #'s. I'll probably have to call the turbo manufacturers to get them, there is a cross reference. For instance, the centrifugal head on the TRD supercharger is a J70 (industrial) but it's a different # when applied to automotive. Either way it's the same thing though.

For the others: From my understanding a centrifugal charger is a centrifugal charger. It can be used for turbo or for supercharging. The difference is how it's driven.

The reason I am asking these outlandish questions is because i work in an industry where I can very likely get the head at a REALLY good cost, so I am considering building a custom kit. I'm just at the beginning stages right now though, still just a concept really.
